Abstract

Dispositif d'administration de médicament, le dispositif d'administration de médicament comportant une extrémité proximale orientée vers un site d'administration de dose pendant l'utilisation du dispositif d'administration de médicament, et une extrémité distale située à l'opposé de l'extrémité proximale, le dispositif d'administration de médicament comprenant : un boîtier présentant un axe longitudinal, une tige de piston comprenant un bossage de tige de piston (41) et pouvant tourner entre une première position de rotation et une seconde position de rotation, la tige de piston étant fixée axialement par rapport au boîtier dans la première position de rotation et étant mobile axialement par rapport au boîtier dans la seconde position de rotation, un couvercle d'élément d'administration de médicament accouplé au boîtier et mobile entre une position déployée et une position rétractée, le boîtier comprenant une surface inclinée de boîtier (31) et une fente de boîtier (32) évidée sur une surface circonférentielle interne du boîtier. Dans la première position de rotation, le bossage de la tige de piston (41) vient en butée contre la surface inclinée (31), et la surface inclinée (31) est conçue pour empêcher un mouvement proximal du bossage de la tige de piston (41) en direction du site d'administration de médicament. Le couvercle de l'élément d'administration de médicament comprend au moins un bras de couvercle d'élément d'administration de médicament s'étendant dans une direction distale, la direction distale étant orientée à l'opposé d'un site d'administration de médicament et, dans la position déployée, le bossage de la tige de piston (41) vient en butée contre une extrémité distale du bras du couvercle de l'élément d'administration de médicament, l'extrémité distale étant conçue pour empêcher la rotation du bossage de la tige de piston (41).
